How Horses Rest.
New York Mail and Express.

New York Mail and Express.
"Horses can get some rest standing" said an
old trainer recently, provided the position he
reasonably easy, but no full rest except recum-
bent. 1t is known of some horses that they
never lie down in the stall, though if kept in
pasture they take their rest habitually in a re-
cumbent position. 1t is we'll to consider whether
the habit has not been forced upon the horse by
some circumstance connected with the stall he
was made to occupy, in that it had muddy
earth floor or one made of dlapidated plank, IN
comfortable and offensive TO the horse that had
been accustomed to select his own bed In the
pasture. If the horse can have the privilege Of
selecting his position for resting his feet he
can sleep standing; but while bis muscles may be
to a certain degree relaxed and get rest In that
position, what can be said of the bearings at the
joints3 Without relief through the recumbent
position, the joint surfaces forced continual
~ to bear n weight varying from 1000 to 1900
pounds. This must act unfavoraby, especially
upon the complicated structures within the
hoofs, which nature intended should have periods
of rest each day."
